Thanks for that, although testing like that is a little outside of my skillset...

So the monitor doesn't look terminal? Is that a consensus view? I'll keep looking for cables/adapters.

More questions. I want to have this running hooked to my 9600 as a second monitor. That is possible, right? My 9600 has 7.6.1, 8.6 and 9.2.2 on various partitions, is it possible to extend the desktop across two monitors in each OS? Will having the portrait hooked up force both screens to grayscale or will I be able to have the multi-scan 14 in colour? I still don't have a video card with dual outputs, but is that a better solution than using 2 video cards anyway?

Ta!
